Histoplasmosis in a dog from New Brunswick.

Erica Tyre1, David Eisenbart, Peter Foley, Shelley Burton.   

Abstract

A young dog was presented with a history of chronic diarrhea, anorexia, and weight loss. Histoplasma capsulatum was suspected, based on cytologic examination of lymph node aspirates and peritoneal fluid, and confirmed by fungal culture. To our knowledge, this is the first case of histoplasmosis diagnosed in a dog in Atlantic Canada.
